Incentives in Adonal Foyle's contract

[AC Transit]

http://www.nj.com/nets/index.ssf/2009/07/nj_nets_incentives.html

Adonal Foyle gets $500,000 if he wins MVP, and another $500K if he wins MVP of the NBA Finals.

haha might as well make him king of the world if that ever happened. I see he's also playing at the pro-am at kezar. I don't think he could even get the MVP of that league.

Foyle already is the king of the world, u aint know?

LMAO!! THAT IS HILLARIOUSS

 

[MOREBASS]

Adonal Foyle would never allow himself to win those measley awards.


Why try to win 500K when you can just absorb the sould of millions, and simply take it ?


Its all fun and games to Foyle.

He could easily play at 10% of his talent level, and break every record in basketball, but why ?

We already know that he's 2nd in line only to God, and even that is debatable.

Matt Bonner of the Spurs gets $100,000 if the sum of his field goal percentage, free throw percentage, and his 3-point percentage matches or exceeds 169 percent.

 

[Unknownn]

Baron Davis, for example, gets $1 million just for playing 70 games and leading his team to victory in at least 30 of them.

 

[Unknownn]

Mario Chalmers $19,580 just for showing up for summer league, and for going through a team "skill/conditioning program."

 

[Unknownn]

Nick Collison of the Thunder -- nice player, probably worthy of anybody's power rotation. He gets $100,000 if he wins -- wait for it -- MVP.

 

[Unknownn]

Adonal Foyle gets $500,000 if he wins MVP, and another $500K if he wins MVP of the NBA Finals. Wonder how many gin and tonics the GM and agent went through before they came up with those.

 

[Unknownn]

If Carlos Boozer plays 65 games, averages more than 32 minutes, and finishes in the top 12 in boards (total or average), he gets $333,333.

 

[Unknownn]

Larry Hughes gets a $1.6 million bonus if his team -- whatever team he's on in '09-10 -- wins 55 games or more. Once again: This guy makes $13.6 million base salary. Shouldn't he be expected to lead his team to 55 wins, aside from the fact that he's, you know, mediocre?

The best one,,,Rafer

Rafer Alston has a base salary of $5.25 million, but he also has some add-ons. If he wins Player of the Week, he'll get $15,000 -- and he can keep winning them and get $15K a pop, with a max of $120,000. If he wins Player of the Month, that's $50,000. And if he makes the All-Star team, he'll earn an additional $325,000.

 

[Unknownn]

Tony Battie (base: $6.06M) has some odd incentives. He gets $100,000 if he plays in 50 games AND averages eight rebounds. He pockets another $100,000 if he plays in 50 and averages five free throw attempts per game. And he'll bring home an extra $100,000 if he is just active for 50 games and the team reaches the second round of the playoffs.

In addition I still have pins available.

 

[MaddDogg]

I also have a "South Asians for Obama" pin my ex-girlfriend gave me I will throw in to the first person who wants a Democracy Matters pin.

I never knew India and Indians considered themselves "South Asian" but apparently they do.
